SAVAGE. love this car. it's funny how often you see a car but until someone does a thread like this you don't appreciate the story that goes with it

Haven't seen the car now for a few months so expect a shit tonne of photos soon when it's home and a complete spec list

So the front end has been taken off today
The original side mount manifold has been taken out and scrapped
And it's nice to see the front end nice and clean never been crashed in Japan before

So we are currently fitting the front mount
Front bumper had to be modified to get the Intercooler to fit in behind it and we are also having issues fitting the headlights again. New brackets will probably have to be made for the bricks
Might spray the Intercooler black just so it won't be extremely in your face when the car is on the road I want to keep that standard unmodified look

Things have been on a slow for the last few weeks
This isn't much of an update but the battery has been taken out and a spot of rust was found underneath
This was to be cut out anyways for the front mount piping
Started collecting slap stickers for the 1/4 windows if anyone has any lying about shoot me a message
And after months of searching I've finally found and purchased a glass silvia front grill from upgarage Japan
Picture of the car about 18 months ago just to keep ye interested

Haha Safety first, I've got a fair idea so.

Another not much of an update but my parts from Japan and England landed today
Less than two weeks ago I was scrolling through upgarage Japan and stumbled across this immaculate silvia front grill I'd been searching everywhere for months for one so this was my chance I snapped it up
Again procrastinating I was scrolling through eBay avoiding the mountain of study I was supposed to be doing and ordered this little alloy header tank just to get rid of the horrible plastic one

So yesterday I got to sit behind the wheel and take the car for a quick spin after basically 18 or 19 months
She's still not quite finished and went for nct Wednesday and only failed on the brick headlights (common so was thrilled) she should be done and dusted tomorrow and retest is on Sunday
Currently switching to triple projectors for nct and may even keep them for summer depending on how it looks
Here's how she currently sits nct spec

Unreal only failing on the headlights! I have NCT in mine in the morning. Must swap out the wheels. I swapped out the steering wheel this evening. Delighted you have it back.
